🔒 MiCA goes into effect - and with it, the question: is it still investor protection, or already an assault on freedom in the cryptocurrency world?
In today's episode, we talk to Mike Satoshi, one of the most recognizable voices of the Polish crypto scene, about how bureaucracy, the FSA and EU regulations are trying to tame something that was inherently meant to be... untamed.

MiCA (Markets in Crypto-Assets) is officially a "market ordering" tool. But what does it mean in practice?
✅ KYC at every turn,
✅ mandatory registration and reporting,
✅ freezing innovation by paragraphs,
✅ and the end of anonymity - even where it was supposed to be guaranteed by blockchain.

Is this really user protection, or is it an attempt to take control of a market that has eluded traditional financiers?
Mike Satoshi and Arkadiusz Jóźwiak, take the topic apart - without censorship and without marketing gibberish.

💬 In the interview we touch on, among other things:

  • How MiCA is changing the cryptocurrency market in Poland and Europe,
  • Why the FSC, instead of supporting innovation, prefers to punish and threaten,
  • What's in store for stock exchanges and startups after the new regulations go into effect,
  • How MiCA will affect individual investors and daily transactions,
  • Whether it is still a "free market" or already a financial sector with a new sticker,
  • and whether the spirit of Satoshi Nakamoto still smolders somewhere in all this.

🔥 This is not another "technical" episode about paragraphs. It's a conversation about freedom, ideas, and the limits of control that are being pushed further and further - often in the name of "security."

Is MiCA really a step forward towards market stability, or is it more of a European muzzle for crypto?
See for yourself, listen to Mike's arguments and judge whether the Union has just crossed another line.
